"Better Days"
Song

"Better Days (And the Bottom Drops Out)" is a 1999 single by the American music group Citizen King, and featured on their album Mobile Estates. A one-hit wonder, the band's most well-known song peaked at #25 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #10 on Billboard's Adult Top 40 chart in 1999.[1] [2]

The song was used in pilot episodes and the series finale of Malcolm in the Middle. It was also used in the final episode of the first season of Charmed. A remix of the song was used in the movie Gone in 60 Seconds, and was included on the film's soundtrack. The remix can be found on a rare Japanese import. The song is also infamous for being mistaken by many people believing the song was sung by the band Sublime.
